Thursday night some valley parents got an eye-opening look at new dangers their kids face on-line.
At Stonewall Jackson High School in Shenandoah County, law enforcement pinpointed cyber threats during live video game play, and a rise is "sexting" which carries a felony charge.
Social networking websites continue to pose a threat.
Currently their are more than 180 of them, which gives sex predators more opportunities to meet young kids
Educators say parents must keep up with technology to protect their kids
"We can't stop kids from using the Internet and we shouldn't stop kids from using the Internet. We need to make parents aware of what things to look for", says Stonewall Jackson High School assistant principal, Morgan Saeler
The presentation also shed light on computer trespass, and copyright infringements, which is something that could get both kids and their parents in trouble
